Advice needed

Postby RMJ9224 » Sat Dec 07, 2024 2:27 pm

So i am currently 11 days into recovery, i was stuck with a catheter in for 9 of the recovery days which was finally removed on Friday. This is because I had issues passing urine on the 2nd day and refused to stay over night at the hospital. While getting my catheter out the nurse made an observation that the implant does not reach the tip of my penis, this has bothered me and since getting home from the appointment i have been checking it out, it is most certainly not in my glans it stops just before them i can feel the tips but this is also in a deflated state.

My question is should the implant even in a deflated state be seated within the glans. If it does once inflated is there a chance it will extend to the glans? I'm still a good week away from cycling (maybe longer due to a pump location issue I'm currently working through) i have a funny feeling this is due to under sizing but wanted to check with the boys before emailing my surgeon.

The tips of my implant are just short of the glans in the deflated state, but move forward when inflated. In my view this is normal.
I would ignore the nurses comment and not stress about it. Only when you start cycling will it become apparent if there is a problem or not.
Good luck

Exactly, just wait until you start to cycle and the cylinders are more inflated

That was the best I could ever do and I should have done it much earlier.
